Comfort is no test of truth. Truth is often far from being comfortable.
The truth is not for all men but only for those who seek it.
A truth that's told with bad intent beats all the lies you can invent.
If you're gonna be two-faced at least make one of them pretty.
You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you mad.
There is nothing true anywhere, The true is nowhere to be seen; If you say you see the true, This seeing is not the true one.
One can not reflect in streaming water. Only those who know internal peace can give it to others.
Tell the truth boldly, whether it hurts or not. Never pander to weakness. If truth is too much for intelligent people and sweeps them away, let them go; the sooner the better.
Only enemies speak the truth; friends and lovers lie endlessly, caught in the web of duty.
Truth, like light blind. Falsehood, on the contrary, is a beautiful twilight that enhances every object.
It takes a certain ingenuous faith- but I have it -to believe that people who read and reflect more likely than not come to judge things with liberality and truth.
Peace at home is peace in the country. Peace in the country is peace in the world.
I believe we are here on the planet Earth to live, grow up and do what we can to make this world a better place for all people to enjoy freedom.
The essence of being human is that one does not seek perfection.
The practice of forgiveness is our most important contribution to the healing of the world.
The monotony and solitude of a quiet life stimulates the creative mind.
I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.
It is not truth that matters, but victory
To love truth for truth's sake is the principal part of human perfection in this world, and the seed-plot of all other virtues.
Don't keep a man guessing too long - he's sure to find the answer somewhere else
It isn't enough to talk about peace; one must believe in it. And it isn't enough to believe in it; one must work at it.
